 例えば、上記バーサチック酸ビニル共重合樹脂(b1)の粒子を分散させる乳化剤(後述する乳化剤(b2)を参照)を減らすと、低温注入性能を向上できるが、この場合、乳化剤が少なくなることで、粒子どうしのイオン斥力が小さくなって粒子どうしが接近し、保管性能が低下する。
 しかしながら、上記バーサチック酸ビニル共重合樹脂(b1)を構成するモノマー単位として(メタ)アクリル酸などの不飽和有機酸を共重合させることで、不飽和有機酸に由来する酸基が粒子表面に現れ、これにより、粒子どうしのイオン斥力が大きくなり、たとえ乳化剤を減らしても、保管性能を低下させずに、低温注入性能を向上できる。
 なお、上記メカニズムは推測であり、これ以外のメカニズムであっても、本発明の範囲内とする。
 以下、本発明のタイヤパンクシール剤が含有する各成分について詳述する。
For example, reducing the emulsifier for dispersing the particles of the vinyl versatate copolymer resin (b1) (see the emulsifier (b2) described later) can improve the low-temperature injection performance, but in this case, by reducing the emulsifier, The ionic repulsion between the particles becomes smaller and the particles approach each other, resulting in a decrease in storage performance.
However, by copolymerizing an unsaturated organic acid such as (meth) acrylic acid as a monomer unit constituting the vinyl versatate copolymer resin (b1), an acid group derived from the unsaturated organic acid appears on the particle surface. As a result, the ionic repulsion between the particles increases, and even if the emulsifier is reduced, the low temperature injection performance can be improved without deteriorating the storage performance.

If “◎” or “◯”, it can be evaluated as having excellent low-temperature injection performance, which is a low-temperature characteristic.

 上記第1表に示す各成分の詳細は以下のとおりである。
 ・天然ゴムラテックス:Hytex HA(野村貿易社製、固形分約60質量%)
 ・バーサチック酸ビニル共重合樹脂エマルジョン:上述したもの
 ・プロピレングリコール:試薬1級、和光純薬社製
The details of each component shown in Table 1 are as follows.
・ Natural rubber latex: Hytex HA (Nomura Trading Co., Ltd., solid content: about 60% by mass)
・ Veracic acid vinyl copolymer resin emulsion: as described above ・ Propylene glycol: Reagent grade 1, manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.
 上記第1表に示す比較例1~4を見ると、比較例1を基準として、乳化剤量を低減することで、低温注入性能が改善される一方、保管性能が劣ることが分かった。
 これに対して、実施例1~6および実施例9~11では、乳化剤量を比較例4と同等以下に低減しても、不飽和有機酸(アクリル酸またはマレイン酸)を共重合させた(B)成分を用いることで、良好な保管性能を維持したまま、低温注入性能を向上できることが分かった。
 また、実施例7および8の結果からは、乳化剤量を低減させなくても、不飽和有機酸を共重合させた(B)成分を用いることで、低温注入性能が向上できることが分かった。
By looking at Comparative Examples 1 to 4 shown in Table 1 above, it was found that reducing the amount of emulsifier on the basis of Comparative Example 1 improved the low-temperature injection performance while inferior storage performance.
On the other hand, in Examples 1 to 6 and Examples 9 to 11, an unsaturated organic acid (acrylic acid or maleic acid) was copolymerized even when the amount of the emulsifier was reduced to the same level or lower as in Comparative Example 4 ( It was found that by using the component B), the low temperature injection performance can be improved while maintaining good storage performance.
Further, from the results of Examples 7 and 8, it was found that the low-temperature injection performance can be improved by using the component (B) obtained by copolymerizing an unsaturated organic acid without reducing the amount of the emulsifier.
